About meI'm a postdoctoral researcher in Shravan Vasishth's lab at the University of Potsdam. I'm the PI of the DFG-funded project BUTTON2, in which I investigate garden path effects using Bayesian computational modeling. I'm also part of project B03, Modelling the connection between eye-movement control, sentence processing, and brain signals (PIs: Shravan Vasishth, Ralf Engbert, Milena Rabovsky) within the Collaborative Research Centre 1287 – Limits of Variability in Language: Cognitive, Computational, and Grammatical Aspects.My interests include, among many others, syntactic parsing and reanalysis, variations of "good enough" processing, and illusions of grammaticality/sense. It's also not the case that I haven't recently become less uninterested in the processing of multiple negation. If you're interested in bidirectional self-paced reading, which allows regressions, the Ibex script based on Alex Drummond's SPR code can be downloaded here. The ZIP archive also contains data analysis code written in R, including scanpath analyses. |
